APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
In Rational Developer for z Systems (RDz) v9.5.1.1 iFix1, when a copybook file is changed outside RDz, and its COBOL source is then edited, the modified copybook file is not loaded. Instead the cached copybook file is loaded. This may result in real-time syntax warnings in the COBOL source for any references to the changes in the copybook file.
Local fix
Problem summary
A dependency copybook gets cached in the client but when it gets changed elsewhere, the cached copybook is still used.
Problem conclusion
Because the updated copybook wasn't replacing the cached one, incorrect results could show up in the editor. The solution is to add checking so that the new copybook gets pulled into the cache if it's newer. The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with IBM Rational Developer for System z V9.5.1.1 ifix4 which is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=2294&uid=swg27006335
